The ITER Project
The ITER Project aims to demonstrate the scientific and technological feasibility of fusion power for peaceful purposes.Iter project is an international cooperation between countries which represent more than 50% of the world’s population.
The ITER Project
Fusion: the fundamental principle
Einstein’s famous equation:E = mc2
Energy = mass x (speed of light)2
Mass loss of 4 milligram in 1 gram⇒ 1 gram of fusion fuel ~ 2000 gallons of oil

+ Mass loss = Energy
Fusion: the fundamental principle
•Fuel: abundant, world‐wide distributed:• sufficient deuterium in seawater for millions of years• tritium is produced from lithium‐ conservative lithium ore recovery estimates indicate sufficientsupplies for thousands of years‐ sufficient lithium in seawater for millions of years
•Safety: no risk of major accidents:• reactor contains fuel for only a few seconds burn
•Waste: no long‐term burden:• low radio‐toxicity after < 100 years
Why Fusion ?
• Long pulse plasma have yet been tested but with more energy than the output power while net gain of energy has been tested but during very short periods.
• The goal of the ITER fusion program is to produce a long net gain of energy and set the stage for the demonstration fusion power plant to come.
• ITER has been designed to produce 500 MW of output power for 50 MW of input power. The expected duration of each plasma pulse during ITER operation is 1000 second
• Temperature combines with density in our Sun's core to create the conditions necessary for the fusion reaction to occur. The gravitational forces can not be recreated on Earth, and much higher temperatures are necessary to compensate. In the ITER Tokamak, temperatures will reach 150 million°C.
Why Iter ?
GENERAL PRESENTATION OF THE PROJECT
ITER Organization (IO):The ITER Organization was formally established on 24 October 2007.The purpose of the ITER Organization is to finalize the design, construct, exploit and de-activate the ITER Facilities.Iter Organization is an international Organization with an international status, like United Nations, with specific legislation and rules of tendering.IO is the Nuclear Operator.
Domestic Agencies:The seven Members have all created Domestic Agencies to manage their “in-kind” contribution to ITER. The EU Domestic Agency is referred to as Fusion for Energy (F4E) and is based in Barcelona, Spain.
ITER Project – Key Entities
France, CEA and AIF: France is referred to as the Host StateCEA is referred to as the Host Organization and has set up a specific agency to manage a range of issues related to the hosting of ITER. This agency is called Agence ITER France.
Financial contributions
EU contributes 46% of construction costsEach of the other 6 members contribute 9% each.In the operational phase EU contributes 34% of costs with other members 10 to 13%
ITER Project – Key Entities
Procurement Arrangement StatusThe IO and DAs have signed more than 100 PA,
These PA organize the in-kind contribution of each DA representing approximately 90% of the total procurement value for the construction of ITER
Each DA negotiates contracts with local contractor in accordance with the scope of the signed PA : 1 800 industrial contracts have yet been signed
